Queally Center

The University of Richmond's new Queally Center integrates the offices of admission, financial aid, and employer development under one roof, transforming the visitor experience and serving our students from acceptance letter to offer letter. It demonstrates Richmond's commitment to attracting the very best students, ensuring Richmond is financially accessible to them, and positioning them for purposeful lives as graduates.

About the Donors

The new facility was made possible by a significant lead gift by Paul and Anne-Marie Queally, both 1986 Phi Beta Kappa graduates of the University. This building is the latest example of the Queallys' decades-long generosity to areas across the University.

Additional major gifts came from 47 other donors.
